"Jai Yen" [cool heart]

Description

:

In the Land of Smiles, life should not be taken too seriously; it should be enjoyed and problems should be forgotten as soon as possible. Thais often say "Mai Pen Rai" meaning 'never mind, it doesn't matter'. "Jai Yen" [cool heart] means 'keep cool' and 'don't let life get you down.' Smiles can also show embarrassment as they put on a happy face to hide unpleasant feelings.
